Sentence examples for rather than deletions from inspiring English sources
Although the proposed fork stalling and template switching (FoSTeS) mechanism is also associated with microhomology [26], this has so far only been implicated in the formation of duplications rather than deletions, and thus FoSTeS is unlikely to have been responsible for these particular CNVs.
Interestingly, most losses (∼76%) were due to disabling mutations rather than deletions of the orphan gene.
Many of the missing genes likely reflect incomplete genomes rather than deletions.
This would suggest that they might have been missense mutations, which would produce full-sized but partially inactivated enzymes, rather than deletions or frameshift mutations.
Examining the segment lengths of deletions and gains separately shows that the BRCA1- and BRCA2-related subgroups are characterised by large deletions whereas the GII-high-III subgroup is characterised by small copy number gains rather than deletions.
Rather than deletion, we identified T cell epitopes in domain II and used alanine substitutions to identify point mutations that diminished those epitopes.
The presence in chicken indicates a gradual degeneration of the second nociceptin peptide before loss in mammals rather than deletion by unequal crossing-over as has previously been suggested [31].
This may suggests that the evolution of fungal genome size is due to addition of nucleotides/DNA contents rather than deletion of nucleotides.
However, in humans, frameshift mutation of MBD4, rather than deletion, is what occurs in up to 43% of microsatellite unstable colon cancers.
SNPs are the main type of polymorphism, indicating that R. anatipestifer evolution mainly relies on this rather than deletion or insertion to generate genetic diversity.
Thus, it is the decrease in the major Shc isoforms p52/p46, rather than deletion of the minor Shc isoform, which drives both animal adiposity and insulin sensitivity phenotypes, and cellular mitochondrial and insulin sensitivity phenotypes.
